Skinny Apple Cake With Caramel Glaze
What a super yummy, easy to make, apple cake. It’s loaded with great fall flavors including tons of apple flavor since I’m adding fresh chopped apples, applesauce, and apple juice to the cake mix. The skinny for each slice, including glaze, 200 calories and 5 grams of fat.

Healthy Tips
Whenever a recipe calls for using whole eggs, Egg-Land’s Best eggs are my favorite to use. They have less saturated fat, less cholesterol, more Vitamin D, more Vitamin E and double the Omega 3 than regular eggs. They’re sold in most supermarkets.
Shopping Tips
I love using cooking spray, with flour in it. It ensures that the baked cake will not stick to the pan and break. Cooking spray with flour can be found in the aisle where cooking oils are displayed. Skinny Facts: for 1 slice without glaze

Tried this recipe?Let me know how it was!
Do you have an idea the blue points per serving if using sugar free cake mix?
Also I may have over looked it but how many serving to a cake please?
Thanks
Roberta
Sorry, Roberta but I don’t know how many blue points this would have if made with a sugar-free cake mix.
This cake makes 16 slices (each serving, 1 slice)
My best,
